- 2 - Letter to Secretary of State K,H, F r a n k to express his intention once again, which he also carried out about three weeks ago. These days a commission of seven men, four of whom were in uniform, appeared in the home of the cobra and demanded of the present wife, K. However, he was still at his place of work, so those mentioned left behind that they would speak again after the end of the working time of the K., Als K. At about 4 p.m. he was already made aware on the way there by neighbors that German officers and probably Gespapo officials had expected him in the morning and were now with him again. When entering his home, however, only more gentlemen were present in civil, who shortly thereafter, a full two-hour cross-examination, expressed and interrogated his wife. In particular, they came to speak of his and his wife's abstinence and believed K. in their hands that of him in state secretary K.H. Frank's letter, after the above-mentioned had also inquired whether he had been exposed to his political attitude because of persecutions by his fellow voters, they informed the K that the whole matter relates to his request to acquire German nationality. He would, they continued, receive them, but, as soon as he was in possession of them, he would have to move to the old kingdom, which K. agreed to do. Kobras described the actions of the officials as very thorough and said that while the one asked him questions, the second noted the answers and the third carefully looked at him, which was thus like a true "interrogation".
